Comments

Beautiful trail with an up and back and a small loop.
30 minutes is about right
The lake (sinkhole) is beautiful and the interesting way the lake was formed is described on the signs. The vegetation and massive eucalypts are superb.
We saw a Sulphur Created Cockatoo, Grebe, Ducks and Fairy Wrens. Apparently also a platypus spot but I think you would have to be lucky given the size of the lake. You walk to one viewpoint of the lake - the trail doesn't follow the waters edge for very long.
